Out Of Control!
Spill it out Jak! Who's is this? Yours? 
Looks like a menu from Brabus... 
Looking at the rear differential, rear axle ratio, high performance brakes and engine upgrade prices is 
But then again what'dya expect from Brabus? It's like buying 2 E55's except you can't drive the other one. lol :p That is some serious upgrade. Wonder who's beast is that? Anybody here? What is the complete timeframe to build that up?

Did you see the part where you pay 21,000$ for 530hp. Yikes.
I really called to ask about rear end gear changes. Brabus claims they get in and change the tranny program to work perfectly with new gears. I am all for it....but 16,000 for LSD....ouch.
Real nice guys though.

I Don't Understand
How can anyone justify spending that kind of money when there are viable alternatives that are available here in the US for substantially less $. Things that make you go Hmmm.

ill stick with mkb, ive done a little research into them and they seem to be a solid mb tuning company. the only person on this forum that i know of that has tried it is lexani, on his black sl600. but from what i hear, any power mod they do, they automatically reinforce your tranny electronically and physically to be able to handle the xtra load.

Look at the pack on the PS2's: 420 per front and 480 for the rear. It kind of puts the rest of their prices into perspective. I guess if money is no object

Wow...arm, leg, and a kidney!~!
It's funny how you can get most of the things on that list for less then a quarter of what you pay for...
But to each his own. I'm sure it's a nice car, but I personally don't think it's worth $88K.

If you have the means why not? Does anyone really need a Maybach or Phantom when a bentley Arnage can do the same for half the price? Does anyone need the arnage when a S-Class can do the same for half again, and then you say well do you need an S-Class when a Lincoln Town car is just as big.
